Dance Of My Life Poem by Mathew Sutter

You touch my hand and ask me to dance with you,
I nod and we walk to the center of the floor.

I wrap my hands around your neck,
And you put your hands on my hips.

We sway back and forth slowly to the music,
And slowly, so very slowly, the world around my melts,
And is only replaced with you.

Your eyes sparkle and your smile makes me smile.
You spin me and dip me in time with music.
You hum the song in my ear as the music becomes apart of our bodies.

We spin faster and faster as the music reaches its highest tempo.
Colors swirl around our heads as the shapes mix into only one thing,
One wall of abstract.

I feel warmth all over my body and happiness,
Fills the sadness in my body.
It overcomes it and dominates my emotions.

Our heads get closer and as the music slows.
Our foreheads touch,
I feel your breath on my face,
Sweet smelling like mint and sugar.
Our lips touch.

And my night becomes a dream on cloud nine.
This dance was truly one of my best dances,
In my life...
